Additional Features

The Power Wave AC/DC 1000 is the first power source to introduce Waveform Control Technology™ to submerged arc welding. Variable frequency and amplitude AC, DC positive or DC negative output allows the user to control the deposition rate and penetration. An operator can increase weld speeds, yield higher quality welds and improve efficiencies in a single or multi-arc environment. The phase angle and frequency of different machines can also be synchronized to balance the interactions between multiple arcs and minimize arc blow. Depending on the output, a welding arc may be driven by a single machine or multiple machines in parallel for applications that require more than 1000 amps of continuous operation.
